He’s also suspected of robbing a gas station in Cos Cob on Monday, April 24.

Greenwich police detectives and the FBI later developed leads that indicated Byers had fled to the San Diego area. An FBI and San Diego County Sheriff’s Task Force conducted surveillance of the area where they believed Byers was, and he was arrested without incident around midnight Pacific Time Wednesday, police said.

He was in custody in California late Wednesday, and Greenwich police have requested his extradition.

Byers was charged with first- and third-degree robbery, second- and sixth-degree larceny, and reckless endangerment.
